MAYER HAWTHORNE PREVIEW

Mayer Hawthorne – Maybe So, Maybe No from Stones Throw on Vimeo.

Stones Throw just released a new video for Mayer’s “Maybe So, Maybe No” cover. Nice little summer party toward the end of the video. A couple of shout-outs to the King of Pop are mixed in the video, too.

Also, on Stones Throw’s Jukebox you can hear “Your Easy Lovin (Ain’t Pleasin Nothin)” from his upcoming album. He definitely shows his Detroit roots with this nice little Motown Sound backbeat. With the mini-break coming out of that first hook, I always think The Supremes are going to jump in with “No love, love… don’t come easy.” Of course they don’t, but that’s okay. That infectious hook and the way he stretches out “blue” right before the chorus as well as that sax solo are more than enough to put a nod in my head and a smile on my face.

Best believe this album is one to buy come September 8/9. Hold off on just one Beatles reissue for this album. You won’t be disappointed.
